Helping a mate sorting his roof out, but the roof looks a bit of a mare.
He's been doing a self build extension.
His bungalow has had an extension and has a vaulted ceiling, with metal beam. (roof 1)
He is converting his garage that will become another room, this also has a pitched roof, (roof 2) the two roofs will intersect and face the same way.
Unless the roof pitch is changed on one side, it's not possible for roof 2 rafters to reach the wall plate.
Is it acceptable practise (will it get signed off) to use bolts/threaded bar to connect the rafters from roof 2 to roof 1?
